My name is Darby and I work primarily as an Overnight Newborn Care Specialist and Postpartum Doula. As a Newborn Care Specialist I support you in your first 12-20 weeks home with a new baby with 30 to 60 hours a week of overnight or daytime care. I will get you set off on the right foot when it comes to having a healthy sleep schedule; working to get your little one (or ones!) sleeping through the night as it becomes age appropriate. I will support their eating needs to ensure their intake supports age appropriate growth and successful sleep, whether that is through breast feeding, formula feeding, bottle feeding or some combination of those options. And most importantly I will be able to keep a close eye on your newest and tiniest family member to make sure their health, development, and habits are all trending in the right direction. Overall my objective is to get a sense for your goals in the first few months to help educate, support, and assess the baby’s and family’s needs. As a postpartum doula my work will look very similar but will have the parent take the lead more. I will be there as your shadow to support with healthy healing for mom and baby. I can offer education, nurturing, assessments of postpartum recovery and referrals to other folks who would help you be successful during this unique time in life.

I’m so happy I found Darby! I was having a hard time getting my newborn to sleep and had questions about feeding. There’s so much information out there and Darby was able to simplify everything for me in a way that worked for me and baby. I was nervous about trusting anyone with my baby but Darby is the real deal. You can tell she really loves babies and I trust her to give good care to my baby when I’m not there. You’re in good hands if you go to Darby for your baby’s needs!

I am passionate about providing support during the vulnerable moments of perinatal events and outcomes. I provide evidence-based care and specialize in informed consent. I look forward to speaking with you!

Recent review

JD was everything we could want in a doula and more than we knew to ask for. They weren't just incredibly supportive and helpful during the labor and delivery, but they were curious about us and our relationship and family and how that might influence what we would need or want when the time came. the time came unexpectedly and suddenly and JD was still there through the whole thing. My partner is nonbinary and JD was there with they/them reminders when we were exhausted, in addition to advocating for us with hospital staff, anticipating needs and bringing extra love and comfort to our efforts.

Hi! My name is Darien and I’m a Registered Nurse with specialized experience in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. For 10 years, I’ve had the privilege of caring for newborns in some of their most delicate and important moments. That background has given me deep knowledge in newborn safety, feeding, sleep support, and recognizing the little details that matter most in those first months. Beyond my professional training, I’m also a mom myself. I understand firsthand the exhaustion, the joy, and the constant learning curve that comes with bringing a new baby home. My goal is to bring both medical expertise and a mother’s intuition to the families I support—whether it’s overnight care so you can rest, guidance with feeding and soothing, or simply being a calm, reliable presence in your home. Every family is unique, and I pride myself on meeting you where you are—supporting your routines, respecting your preferences, and making sure you feel confident and cared for. I look forward to helping you create a peaceful, well-rested start for your little one and your family.

Her knowledge, professionalism, experience, and level of compassion make her ideal choice for any support needs an expectant or new family may need. I spent many years working as a childbirth educator, doula, and L&D nurse. I have both referred my clients and used her services personally. I am very confident telling anyone they would be fortunate and grateful to have her as part of their support network.
